rcu: Add lockdep-RCU checks for simple self-deadlock
It is illegal to have a grace period within a same-flavor RCU read-side critical section, so this commit adds lockdep-RCU checks to splat when such abuse is encountered. This commit does not detect more elaborate RCU deadlock situations. These situations might be a job for lockdep enhancements. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
